Try the Macel Samba – A saddle built for core stability
Macel Samba is the obvious choice of saddle for you who strive for core stability in both yourself as a rider and your horse. An extremely close contact saddle that almost integrates with the horse’s back. Designed to create stability in the horseback and give the rider maximum opportunity to interact with minimal changes in the muscle tone. Less deep and has less knee support than other dressage saddles.
With the Samba saddle, Macel has found the perfect combination between stability and flexibility. The result is a saddle with almost magic fitting on the horseback, that follows the curvature of the back and lies completely centered and still. It’s unique close contact minimises the imbalances between horse and rider.
A saddle can never straighten a skewed horse, but the Macel Samba makes it easier for the rider to stay centered and sit balanced, which is a prerequisite for straightening the horse and create a true lift in the chest.
Every saddle is custom made to fit both the horse’s back, the rider’s pelvis and legs and the customer’s requests about colours of the leather and thread.
